When the ball on a spring is replaced by a smaller ball with half the mass :  The period decrease by 29%

<h3>Calculate the Period </h3>

We will apply the formula below to calculate period

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k } }

 where :

T₁ / T₂ = \sqrt{\frac{m_{1} }{m_{2} } }    where m₂ = m₁ / 2

Therefore :

T₂ = \frac{T_{1} }{\sqrt{2} }   = 0.71 T

Hence we can conclude that the period will decrease by 29% ( i.e 100 - 71 ).

A stone is thrown horizontally with an initial speed of 10 m/s from the edge of a cliff. A stopwatch measures the stone's trajec
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

The height of the cliff is 90.60 meters.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial horizontal speed of the stone, u = 10 m/s

Initial vertical speed of the stone, u' = 0 (as there is no motion in vertical direction)

The time taken by the stone from the top of the cliff to the bottom to be 4.3 s, t = 4.3 s

Let h is the height of the cliff. Using the second equation of motion in vertical direction to find it. It is given by :

h=u't+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

h=\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

h=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times (4.3)^2

h = 90.60 meters

So, the height of the cliff is 90.60 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

Suppose that a charged particle of diameter 1.00 micrometer moves with constant speed in an electric field of magnitude 1.00×105
Dovator [93]
It's a bit of a trick question, had the same one on my homework. You're given an electric field strength (1*10^5 N/C for mine), a drag force (7.25*10^-11 N) and the critical info is that it's moving with constant velocity(the particle is in equilibrium/not accelerating). 
<span>All you need is F=(K*Q1*Q2)/r^2 </span>
<span>Just set F=the drag force and the electric field strength is (K*Q2)/r^2, plugging those values in gives you </span>
<span>(7.25*10^-11 N) = (1*10^5 N/C)*Q1 ---> Q1 = 7.25*10^-16 C </span>
